Four prominent leaders of Hong Kong's democracy movement are jailed for their role in organising mass pro-democracy protests in 2014 that paralysed the city for months and infuriated Beijing. IMAGES
Hundreds gather outside the government headquarters in Hong Kong to mark the third anniversary of mass pro-democracy rallies known as the Umbrella Movement, as fears grow over Beijing's tightening grip on the city. IMAGES
The retired 90-year-old Hong Kong cardinal Joseph Zen arrives at court where he will go on trial alongside four fellow democracy supporters for their role in running a fund to help defend people arrested in anti-government protests. Cardinal Zen, one of Asia's highest-ranking Catholic clerics, was originally detained earlier this year under a national security law that Beijing imposed on Hong Kong to quell dissent. IMAGES
Hong Kong democracy supporters line up outside court as dozens of Hong Kong democracy activists charged with subversion return to complete a marathon bail hearing. The hearing was adjourned overnight when four defendants were rushed to hospital after hours of legal wrangling. IMAGES
A sea of democracy activists once more flood the streets of Hong Kong in a defiant show to the city's leaders that their movement still pulls wide public support, despite mounting violence and increasingly stark warnings from Beijing. IMAGES
